I LOVE old films. Bette Davis, Barbara Stanwyck, Lauren Bacall and all of their impeccably dressed, chain smoking male counterparts were the real deal. Seriously, is there ANYONE even remotely like Bette Davis today? Bogie? I don't think so.

So, I wanted to capture that feeling of old Hollywood, of rain slicked streets, brightly lit skyscrapers at night and danger just around the corner, and here's my attempt at a film noir tag. I had a lot of fun making it and was pleased with the results. I hope you will be too.

And here is my Solstice tag for 2010. The brightest of blessings to all who celebrate! And yay for longer days! I love the dark part of the year, but I gotta admit, I start getting depressed after awhile so I am REALLY glad the days will be getting longer and longer.

Here's my Christmas/Winter tag for 2010. It's actually a redo because my good friend, Layla, ordered one with the same theme last year, and when I went to tag her, I realized I'd deleted the master copy. Oops! Which reminds me, I really need to tag her on this and send it to her. Happy Christmas those of you who celebrate!

This came about as the result of a challenge, but what can I say? I lurve my state, dude. Olvera Street, the Huntington Gardens, Black Flag, The Doors, Linkin Park, Hollywood, Griffith Observatory, beautiful beaches, medical pot, Liberal views, 7 generations of Californians in the family leading back to the conquistadors. It's in my blood. Nuff said.

OMGz!!!eleventy!!!11!!! It's not animated therefore it must thuck. Actually, its suckage level to be determined by the person who looks at it. If you actually like it soooooo much you want it (and why wouldn't you? ;-P), you know where to find it.

I am back from the dead. Or rather, this blog is. Bout time, huh? I'm not sure what happened last month. Guess life interfered as it often does. And then sometimes I just don't feel like posting, so I don't. I'm lazy like that sometimes.

So, I have 15 new tags, and this is the first of 'em.

For some reason, last month I really got into a thing where I listened to a lot of the old punk from my teen years. Comfort music, maybe? And also maybe feeling a little angry about offline stuff? One of my best friends died of cancer, and last month my godmother was diagnosed with breast cancer. So, out came all the old punk albums, and one of my favorites, Social Distortion's "Mommy's Little Monster", got played A LOT. It inspired this tag as a matter o'fact, so there. ;-P

About Me

Welcome to my blog. Most of the tags you see here are of my own creation. Many of them are dark, goth, Pagan or horror tags, but not all of them. I also offer tags I have made from doing tuts, and I'll credit the designer for those whenever possible here.
My Rules:
1. Two requests a week ONLY
2. Send tag name and name you want on tag to graffikgal@gmail.com
3. YOU MUST BE SUBSCRIBED TO THE BLOG TO REQUEST.
4. 10 letters a name or less.
5. The only changes to finished tags will be to correct mistakes.
Thanks for your interest in my tags!
